Looks Great! --  GW Ross 

Yep, looks great. Good job.

I like gardening and similar outdoor projects. I replaced the slats on a similar discarded/salvaged bench, with ER cedar, gave it to my sister, 2-3 yrs ago. I don't recall if I put a finish on it. I'll have to ask her how it's holding up. Yours looks much better, than the one I repaired.
